The Dark Blob Progresses!

I didn't get a photo because it was dark this morning and except for a long, dark rectangle, there's really nothing to see right now.  I did finish knitting the body on my Chrysalis cardigan last night!

The next steps are to weave in ends and block the thing.  Then I will seam it to make it a wearable shape.  Finally, I'll have to make some decisions about edging the sleeve cuffs and the front edges.  In the pattern she calls for some kind of edging (maybe I-cord?) but I haven't read that far and I've kind of been playing with the idea of ribbing at the cuff edge.  I won't know for sure though until I try it on once it's blocked and seamed.  (And I should probably read the actual pattern, just to see how it was actually designed.)

I did have to use part of a seventh ball of yarn for this, so I'm glad I ordered more yarn.  I ordered enough yarn to make a second sweater out of it, I'm thinking a pullover since this is a cardigan.  I'd love pullover suggestions for worsted weight yarn in the comments, if anyone has any!

Have a great weekend!

ahem, as a woman of a "certain age" I prefer cardigans to pullovers as I can remove the cardigan as opposed to the pullover and not be arrested. Can't wait to see this cardi finished. Such an interesting pattern.
